Last Seen 70s/80s Movie

especially angels story ...

i'm not saying you have to see it - but it sure seems obvious to me ..

i guess it doesnt help that Sir Ian Mckellen is their leader :)


I guess I see what you're saying, although I just didn't see it in the film.


I assume that means Ian Mckellen is gay then? I don't pay very close attention to celebrity gossip. He sure looked gay in his helmet though.

oh yeah, he's a champion of gay rights ..

there is a story i should look up to verify it ..

something about him 'coming out' to piss off Thatcher at the time

[urgeok]

here's a mention of it :

something about him 'coming out' to piss off Thatcher at the time Ian Mckellan is, in fact, gay. (yes yes, we all know, "Gandalf the gay") He has been quoted as saying he wished he had stayed in the closet because as soon as he came out, everybody and his brother's boyfriend wanted him to do stuff for them (parades, spokesmanship, etc.)

He basically wants to be himslef and act and be left alone about the whole thing. Last i heard, anyway.

Hmmm... I had no idea. I'll tell ya the 1 person I have heard is gay but is not out of his closet yet though... Dave Courier. Yep, Uncle Joey on Full House. I have a friend that worked at a video store in Hollywood & she said Dave Courier used to come in there like once a week and buy a bunch of gay porn movies.

Alan Cumming is another gay actor who's pretty open about it..

Not horrible for what it was. Stayed true to the original as far as acting and gore went.

Poseiden...

Not terrible, but not very good either. Most of it was great build up to really anti-climactic "payoff"


But at least i got to see fergie from the black eyed peas bite it.

Both pretty good movies.

28 Days Later is alot better of course, but I enjoyed both.

Cybernator

Ahhhhh Troma! It's always very hit or miss when dealing with an exceptionally cheesy movie, but every once in a while you do find a gem. This was one of those instances I thought. What a delightfully cheesy piece of sci-fi cyborg horror crap! I was enjoying every minute of it despite the bad script, hokey FX, terrible acting and very low budget. If you like 'B' Science fiction movies, you'll have fun with this one.

C-




Die Hard

Yeah! Die Hard kicks ass! I've always appreciated how it takes about 20 minutes to set up the characters and then spends the next 65 minutes killing terrorists in imaginative ways. This is, and probably always will be, one of my favorite action movies. John McClane is just a cool character, period. I can't wait for Die Hard 4, which is in the works (I hear it may be getting released as 'Live Free or Die Hard'.) Good story, good action, good direction, good violence... There isn't really anything negative for me to say about this movie...

A- is a great grade from me as I am generally very stingy with A's. I think I have only given 1 A in the past year (Original TCM). I reserve the top grade for very exceptional films. Anything I list as an A- is an really awesome movie, just not quite in the 'work of art' range.

I see, very good.

I haven't seen Die Hard yet...this makes me want to see it bad.

My weekend list:

- Die Hard

I explained that wrong. I reserve A+ for the work of art type movies and that is what I've only given 1 of in the past year. A & A- are both still excellent films but they just quite aren't there at that higher pedestal. I think I gave this one an A- simply for the fact that there are a handful of better action films out there that aren't masterpieces and they will need a place to go if that makes sense.

Black Christmas (1974)

It was an alright movie with a pretty damn effective ending. It wasn't anything spectacular, and it certainly wasn't as good as Halloween is (I know, I know, Halloween owes everything it had to BC...but Halloween is a superior film).

Good cast, though, with good performances.

Well, they air on Spike and Space every once in a while, marathon-style, and back a few years I remember catching some bits of the sequels. I've seen a few of the more recent sequels (ie - the shitty installments like H20), but nothing of the originals. I wasn't too drawn to ever seeing the first two... before recently, when over 20 members had it as their top #1 favourite horror film. Then I knew I HAD to see it.

I'm worried that after seeing it I'll be dissapointed... after all this hype I've created, and others, around it.

Anyway... thoughts after each one.

um...no

Saw it last night and it was barely mediocre. The first 15 minutes were promising and R Lee Ermy always delivers, but there is NOTHING else going on here. And what little good there is in the film is completely obscured by shitty the-camera's-shaking-so-things must-be-scary style of directing. And the ending...

WHAT?

Completely stupid. Wait for DVD.

Better/worse/equal to the remake? How does it compare?

[hitman3005]

Worse! Roderick summed it all up nicely. I kept looking at the clock in the theatre to see how much longer i had to endure it. At least in the 2003 remake i cared somewhat for the characters. This one, i couldn't wait for them to die. Movie dragged on and on. Nothing creepy or suspenseful at all. Shaky camera did nothing for me. Shit! Nispel could've done a better job with this. But in reality, what were we expecting from the diretor of Darkness Falls.:rolleyes:

only had a couple of problems with the movie ..

- i found the music too contrived and intrusive a lot of the time... distracting -

Silent Hill. It kinda tripped at the end, and what actually happened with Rose and Sharon is hazy (are they alive? is Sharon evil? Cmon now...)

You´ll get your answers in the sequal.;)

[Vodstok]

It's a good thing it did well. Writers really should not write a first movie with "Wait until the sequal" questions left. it's not like it was Lord of the Rings where there was a story thaat bridged 3 seperate volumes to begin with. Granted, they have quite a few silent jhill games, but that is a BIG risk making a video game movie. shouldve given just a bit more info.

[bwind22]

Bram Stoker's Way of the Vampire

Gimme an 'S'! S! Gimme a 'U'! U! Gimme a 'C'! C! Gimme a 'K'! K!

What's that spell? Bram Stoker's Way of the Vampire!

Wow! This movie sucked some of the most major balls of any I've seen recently and that's pretty rough news because I've been watching Troma & D grade horror lately! Horrible script, bad directing, bad acting, stupid fight scenes , stupid FX, minimal gore, corny lines that're so bad they're... just bad. This film basically offers zero entertainment value whatsoever and I could only recommend to someone looking for some way to inflict slow and painful punishment on thier enemies. The majority of the gore is so low budget that it just looks like streawberry jelly, but there is one part where a heart is ripped out that looks pretty good. That solitary 3 second scene is the only thing saving this movie from an 'F' grade.

I can definately see where you're coming from. I had a little trouble with the soundtrack myself, it was about three songs that they played over and over again, and it didn't seem like they had any volume control. The only time I liked this was the irish type song (I think it was the Dropkick Murphys) that they pumped during the long awaited title sequence. I loved the way this movie didn't even really get started until about 20 minutes into it.

As far as the crawling thing...yeahhhh, that was pretty blatant. My friend hated that, too. I'm not sure what I thought about it.

[novadawn969]

Yeah, we watched the movie thingy for the Scarlet Letter. I have never wanted to bitch slap someone so bad in my entire life...

i havent seen IA .. but one of the guys with us had and said it was very close.
Scorcese - while putting his stamp on it - still left the strong feel of a HK film.

I was very impressed.

Fangoria was right to rave about this film as much as it did (it was released by fangoria's gorezone, although there wasnt much gore)

despite some bad acting, this film was beautifully directed. The story is real good to and unfolds in well done way. i highly suggest it.

Questionable acting, bad camerawork at times, and it was predictable but I think it's getting a bad rap. I thought it was some good gory fun and a lot better than what I've been seeing released recently as horror.

[bwind22]

At Midnight I'll take Your Soul

This is a black & white film out of S. America from the mid 60's. It revolves around a sinister character named Coffin Joe who will stop at nothing to get the woman he desires. For it's time, the gore is probably great, but not so much nowadays. The FX are pretty poor but this is still a fairly entertaining & unique piece of work. I don't exaclty know who I'd recommend something like this to but for diehard horror fans, it's worth checking out, if for no other reason than you rarely find S. American horror at all, let alone from the 60s.

Darkman

This movie is like a comic book put to film. (Was it actually a comic book before it became a movie?) Anyways, Sam Raimi shows why we all tend to adore his work in this dark, violent tale of vigilante justice. A tragic hero, a nasty villain, a good story, good action, good acting and nice direction, and even a Bruce Campbell cameo. What more could you ask for from an early 90's comic style action film?

All the films I watched today....

Killer Klowns From Outer Space
Ernest Scared Stupid
Eight Legged Freaks
-------------------------------These three were while I was at work.

Then when I got home I watched:

Lucky Number Slevin
Texas Chainsaw Masscre 4: The Next Generation
The Sympathy of Lady Vengeance

[Bloody Mitts]

Wow, last few I've watched over maybe a 3 day period were...

The Descent.. I was disappointed but it makes a good date movie.

Aeon Flux.. Sci-fi but I give it a lot more credit than even the creator of the series did.

and right now i'm in the middle of watching Saw 2.. this movie is 'suspenseful' (horror style) and I am enjoying it so far, i think the only thing that will ruin the movie for me will be a horrible ending.. which i doubt seeing as how the first one ended well and they are releasing a third.

Tommorrow - Texas Chainsaw Massacre (remake) and The hills Have Eyes. If time allows I'll probrablly pop in Silent Hill as well (I'll be damned biased on that one).

R.I.Peace out folks.

Saw 2 > Saw


I thought the ending of the first Saw was totally a film-killer. It punched way to many holes in the plot for me to enjoy it. Saw 2's ending actually makes sense and is executed well. This is one of the very few cases that I prefer the sequel to the original. (Also, the blond guy in the original... He was a terrible fuckin' actor.)

[Vodstok]

(Also, the blond guy in the original... He was a terrible fuckin' actor.)

[the_real_linda]

i bought saw (finally!) from asda last night, my moms got saw 2. she wont let me put them together. grr. the same with the descent....i bought it for her to watch but she's kept it but it belongs with 'dog soldiers'.....plus neil took my course at uni and one of my lecturers is obsessed with 'the descent'. i watched 'mean girls' with my sister yesterday.......ive watched that a lot recently.....hmmmmmm.......and i watched texas chainsaw2 and the dark.

He's a good actor usually, but Im with Bwind on this: He sucked ass in Saw.

And for the record, I didnt like Saw 2's ending.


***Spoilers (obviously)***



The Amanda thing was OK, but chaining the detective to the wall just goes against EVERYTHING that Jigsaw "teaches". There is no weay for him to redeem himself, to learn a life lesson. I thought it was pretty dumb, despite the movie being better overall than #1.

[zwoti]

I think I might watch A Nightmare On Elm Street 3 or maybe 5 I can't decide.

[glm]

Silent Hill

[Elvis_Christ]

Amityville Horror (the original).

Pretty decent but I liked the remake better (yep sue me :) ).
James Brolin (motherfucker was intense!) is way more convincing than Ryan Renoylds but I thought the story and effects were handled better in the remake. The original is was a bit to drawn out and overlong for me. But like I said it was decent and I enjoyed it.

Didn't he give the detective a chance to redeem himself by sitting and talking with/listening to Jigsaw? He only ended up in the chains because he decided not to talk with Jigsaw and save his life. It wasn't about the kid because the kid was set free anyway.

[The Mothman]

first time seeing Army Of Darkness

9/10
Raimi and Campbell pull it off again. fucking hilarious.

[Cadaver]

Braindead - aka Dead Alive
fun gory flick

[Phalanx]

Ultimate Avengers, watched it with my brother.
Still enjoy this one, I like the change of scene - I'm a big "Ultimates" and Ultimate Marvel Universe fan. Good decent introduction to a few MU charactersm with some interesting twists.
Solid storyline, GREAT music, and fucking excellent animation...and IMO the best version of the Hulk ever seen onscreen.
Hope to see the sequel soon.

Haha. Dude, he fucking SUCKED in Saw! That part where he's laying on the floor reaching for the phone and crying about his wife or whatever is some of the worst "acting" I've seen in a studio produced film in years.

[GorePhobia]

I just put in Stay Alive, haven't heard many things about it. Prolly will suck but I am bored.

[bwind22]

Lucky Number Slevin

I liked it. Pretty fast paced & violent. Lots of big names & a good storyline. I may be biased because I'm a big Josh Hartnett supporter (He's from my hood) but I thought this was probably his best acting job in a starring role. (I really liked his part in Sin City too, but it was barely more than a cameo.) Bruce Willis, as usual, was excellent too and I was surprised to find that Lucy Liu didn't really annoy me as much as usual. Good acting, directing, violence, story... All in all, a really solid, entertaining film.

It wasn't as terrible as I was expecting a PG-13 horror film starring Malcom (in the Middle) to be. At least it's a fairly original concept... Let me know what you think after you watch it all.

[GorePhobia]

Well.

Stay Alive

The movie was slow in the begining. Alot of cut away death scenes. But it is natural for a PG-13 horror flick. I liked the fact that they used fuck alot more then normal. There is definately an okay ammount of blood. The acting is alright. Not the best ever but when is it great in horror flick. The plot is definately original and I like how the story went. Its gets alot better the last half hour of the movie.

I will give it a B-/C+

Doom
7.7/10

i really liked this one. The first half of the movie was pretty stupid, and i was expecting more stupidness, but man did it get good. sure, it had a really stupid part here and there, but damn was some of that action and gore cool. beat the shit out of that atrocious silent hill.

[bwind22]

the thing i didnt like about that film is it didnt have very much action. i went into that film expecting Bruce Ass Kickin'

Well, it's a far cry from Kill Bill or Hard Boiled in terms of fast paced action, but I guess I didn't go into it expecting anything like that. I was expecting a cool hitman story and that was pretty much what I got. There wasn't a ton of fighting action (none really), but there was a good deal of violence and people getting killed and that compensated for me. I liked it. :)

[The Mothman]

true. my favorite part is when bruce just stands there infront of the wall, the guys bust through and he takes them out. i just wish there was more of that because that was bad ass.

I'm not a huge fan of Nekromantik. It definately has the disturbo factor, but that's only due to it's uncreative animal torture scenes and bizarre and violent sexual themes.

The point was forced on me, and there was no way to enjoy- or even respect it.

I don't understand why this film has gotten such a following. I've seen so much more done with so much less and the movie was pretty boring most of the way through. Rented it from Netflix, gave it a 2/5.

Are You Scared?

A really shitty rip off of the Saw films. A man kidnaps 6 teens and locks them in a warehouse. He sets up cameras all around them and tells them they are involved in a hidden camera reality show called "Are You Scared?" Then he has them face their fears and people die. It was really bad.

D- (That's only for effort. Atleast they tried)

re. DOA ... were the 1st two more violent or anything ?
i found the third extremely tame for a miike film

[Vodstok]

8mm. I have never seen it on anythign other than tv, which would be like only ever seeing Se7en on tv, where half the good stuff was cut out. the worst part was they cut out throat slashing, beatings, etc., and this was on FX. FX! the channel that brought us the sheild, where shit and dickehead fly around like bugs, and mackey perpetrates someof the worst violence ever filmed, but nicholas cage smashing tony soprano's head with a gun is too graphic...

well, just the nature of the film - its censure fodder anyway - you know they'll be all over it - like a TV safe release of Deep Throat

[Vodstok]

Yeah.. bree had it pegged right off, the acting and everythitgn is great, but with all that shit going on, not getting to see the payoff is incredibly unsatisfying. Christ, the scene with Machine gettin goffed finally was like a wet fart...

[urgeok]

i forgot - i also watche The Pink Panther Strikes Back

this is my personal favorite in the series.

it hasnt stood the test of time very well but i remember laughing until i cried at the 'dentist scene'

so it may not technically be the best one but for the sake of nostalgia - it is for me ..

[Vodstok]

A lot of the old pink panther movies were just a little to 60's fare for me... Peter sellers was genius, but the rest was usually pretty retarded.


"What are you doing with that minkey?"
"Minkey?"
"Yes, the minkey."
"You mean the monkey?"
"Thats what i said! Minkey!"

[urgeok]

yeah, they are pretty dated and comedy (in some cases) has become more clever at mixing slapstick with more sophisticated humor - in a much more effective way ... but i grew up with these pink panther flicks and at the time - they were fresh, origional and funny. thankfully i can still call on the memories of the experience of seeing them back in the day.

part of the humor was that he was far nastier than that
very arrogant all the time being wrong..

it was more like :


"What are you doing with that minkey?"
"Minkey?"
"Yes, the minkey."
"You mean the monkey?"
"Minkey, yes, that is what i said , you idiot!"

[Phalanx]

Layer Cake.
It was ok, but personally I think that since lock stock, I've liked this guys films less and less. Great cinematography, and a really good musical score...some funny characters, but I think the plot was a little too convoluted at points, with random characters from the past and present being referred to I was left thinking "what? who?" a few times too many I thought.
The overall plot was ok, but to me there was just something not very likeable about the film. It's "ok", but I could live without seeing it again.

The Omen (2006)
You know what? This wasn't bad at all. Infact, it's quite a strong remake. Or re-filming, as I would call it. The plot follows the original almost to a t; save for some apocoplytic relating to recent world events (which was quite smart in my books). The acting is definately down from the original, way down, and Julia Stiles is a big stinker - but it doesn't distract from the overall experience that much (and besides, she's not the main focus). Visually... it's stunning. Set pieces, camera work, effects... all done very well. The Damien in this movie, in my opinion, is a lot creepier then the older Damien in the originals. Overall... it's like the original. There's really no point to it, except for opening the original up to a newer, flash-craving, audience. And what's so wrong about that?

If you like the original, I'd say check this out at least. There's not too much difference, except for the fact that the film footage is fresher.

[Geddy]

I'm watching Friday part 6 right now.After that 7 and then I'm going to bed.

[heebiejeebies]

Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. I skipped this one last week because I thought it would be yet another weak addition to the franchise, but I reconsidered when I read some positive reviews. I have to say I was impressed and really liked it. It's not nearly as good as the original, but what is?:p

The Departed. I went to see this with my cousin. I'm not a Scorsese or Dicaprio fan, but I really liked this movie. It's not as good as Infernal Affairs, the Asian movie that inspired it. IMO, Scorsese fell into the same trap a lot of directors fall into; he felt the need to take things one step too far with the ending. He should have ended it about two or three minutes earlier. Overall, however, it was good. Jack Nicholson is great (if a bit over-the-top at times).

I've heard they quarreled quite a bit during production. I'm guessing Hooper wanted a gore/scare fest while Spielberg wanted a supernatural action-thriller. Who knew a 50/50 combination of both could be so perfect?

Tommy Lee Jones playes a tough no nonsense texas ranger (a stretch for him) but he gets to have fun with it ..

he's been put in charge of protecting 5 witnesses to a homicide ... and they're all cheerleaders.

the suprise of this film is that it didnt fall into a single stupid cliche that i was expecting.

it was extremely well written and directed. great dialogue..
even Tommy Lee couldnt have pulled this off if the writing was bad ... so kudos to the people involved.

Underworld Evolution

This movie makes me feel like AVP did. Werewolves vs Vampires should be the most awesome geek-fest ever... but it just isn't.

If I'd have had a gun, I would have given them something to really scream about:D
As for my opinion of the actual movie....Lame, 2/10. The acting was terrible, as well as the set-up.

9.5/10

[bwind22]

Ultraviolet

There was plenty of action in this futuristic vampire/virus film, but the problem was that it all felt so choreogrpahed that I may as well have been watching a dance recital. The plot was also unneccesarily confusing and the story just really wasn't all that interesting. It was okay, but nothing I'd recommend or ever bother to see again.

C-



House of 1000 Corpses

This is cool. Although I prefer Devils Rejects, this is still a pretty cool, dark piece of work. The acting is good, the story creepy. I remember thinking that this movie borrowed a lot from TCM, after watching it the first time, but upon another viewing I don't see that as much. Good directing, plenty of violence & gore and of course... Otis!

B



Dirty Pretty Things

I watched this not knowing much about it, but found it to be pretty good. It's a gritty story of a couple of immigrant hotel workers who stumble on to a bizarre murder scene. Well acted and a pretty cool plot. The one big flaw here is that all of the characters have a different accent so understanding what is being said can be a challenge. I actually watched it with sub-titles. All in all, this was a pretty cool film.

nor me, it's one of my favourites too, watch it a lot :cool:

[The_Return]

Yeah that's the one.I wish it was the dvd version though.I heard Robert Englund does a commentary or something on it.

He does, but you're not missing much. For the most, it's just him complementing himself, and finding ways to relate every damn movie to NOES, so he can talk about himself some more.

It's kinda sad, really.

Dead and Breakfast.

Eminently enjoyable...nice dark humor.

Watched 2 horror movies saturday night, so to be fair to the bride, I watched two chick flicks last night.

American Dreamz-----better than I expected

The Breakup------worse than I expected

[The Mothman]

Skinned Deep
5/10
pretty strange, yet atrocious horror movie.

Baby Blood
7/10
pretty solid horror film, with damn lots of blood.

The Roost
5.5/10
despite decent acting and good lighting. this was a pretty big let down. (i was expecting a gory film)

Bad Taste again

The Thing again

I still say it´s Bacon´s best movie to date.

I´m sure he would disagree with me though. :rolleyes:

[urgeok]

i think bacon is in a lot of bad movies - but he's always good.

my favorite performance of his is Diner


"it's a black eye, you bozo !"

tremors II


wasnt as bad as i was expecting ... kind of fun.
My kid is hooked (so to speak) and now wants to watch all 4.

I can imagine with the absence of Fred Ward that these last 2 sequels are going to stink the place up.

I love all the Tremors... even the last super silly/cheese filled two. Don't know why either, maybe I'm just sick in the head.

[The Flayed One]

Valentine. I've had this movie for around 2 years now. Finally put it in. It's a servicable slasher.

Giner Snaps 2: Unleashed. Fucking love all of the Ginger Snaps movies. I hadn't seen this one in a year or so. Still love it.
